INGREDIENTS

Natural waxes:

Triple-filtered beeswax, humanely harvested from local hives
Carnauba, Myrica, Japan and Berry waxes

Pure Pine Gum Spirits of Turpentine

No Petrochemical Solvent, No Silicone

IMPROVED UV PROTECTION

Our commitment to preserving the natural beauty of your wooden furniture has led us to improve our beeswax polish formula by incorporating a UV absorber. This addition has been scientifically proven to significantly lessen the harmful effects of UV radiation from direct sunlight on wooden surfaces.

By integrating a UV absorber into our trusted beeswax polish formula, we provide additional protection that absorbs even more of the harmful UV rays before they can damage the wood or its finish. This advanced protection is especially crucial for pieces exposed to direct sunlight, helping to greatly reduce discolouration and extend the life of your furniture.

While it does not block all UV rays entirely, it acts as a crucial additional barrier, extending the life of your furniture and keeping its colour and finish vibrant.

ECO RESPONSIBILITY

Environmental preservation is very important to us and we make every effort to ensure our products have a minimal impact on the environment:

We are not driven by a corporate cost-reduction ethos. We select our components based on quality and sustainability rather than the cheapest alternatives
No petrochemical solvents, we use only pure pine gum spirits of turpentine
100% Plastic-free recyclable packaging
Recycled cardboard and paper from FSC-approved mixed sources
Packing tape that is paper & cotton based with a water-based gum adhesive which can be recycled along with the cardboard boxes
No polypropylene-based tape. We use biodegradable raffia twine.
Our workshop roof is completely covered in solar panels and generates far more electricity than we consume

HOW TO USE

For best results use the included ultra-soft 0000-grade oil-free wire wool to apply the polish
With gentle pressure spread the polish evenly over the surface in the direction of the grain, being careful not to over apply and avoid any upholstered areas. Once applied the surface area should look matt in appearance
Allow the pure pine turpentine to completely evaporate and the wax to harden (15-20 minutes in temperate climates)
Use the included open-weave pure cotton buffing cloth to buff the wax with ease and without leaving streaks. An open-weave cloth reduces the heat from friction that would melt the top layer of wax and cause smearing.

Weekly furniture maintenance of removing dust can be done by simply using a slightly damp cloth and drying if needed with a clean dry cloth - beeswax polish will protect the surface for a very long time.

If you have a larger surface like the side of a chest of drawers or the top of a dining table apply the beeswax more evenly by dabbing the surface all over with small amounts of polish, then wipe in the direction of the grain to spread the wax evenly.

SECRET TRADE TIP:

For carved relief areas such as an antique coffer, you can also apply beeswax furniture polish with a cheap 1 inch trimmed paint brush. It makes applying the beeswax much easier and allows the polish to get right into those dusty and hard to reach areas. Buff it when completely dry with a soft shoe brush and buffing cloth.

Beeswax review

First time I’ve used gilboys beeswax and I’ve found it excellent product and i really liked the hard coloured wax that is supplied with each wax and even though I’m not a great fan off filling minor chips in veneer I found them to work really nicely as age of desk didn’t warrant repairing every single chip all in all well and truly happy with the results off wax kit I brought and will definitely be replacing them like for like once they are finished and I really liked the refill jars to send back with return label for discount on next refill. Sorry i couldn’t show results as the desk as it’s already been picked up.

Polishing kit, honey, water mark remover and wax oil

Have so far only used the polishing waxes. They are brilliant . I have used on furniture - retro teak (rose gold), light oak on handrails ( clear wax) and rose gold wax on old oak library chairs. All look much better and nourished now. The depth of colour now is gorgeous and the feel of the furniture is so nice. Would definitely recommend. I watched the very helpful videos.
The packaging was divine - it was like receiving presents. All were wrapped beautifully with individual messages to me. Loved that!
Very happy customer - thank you very much.

Superb

Been in the antique and restoration trade 40 years and a bit set in my ways but got this kit on recommendation.to try. Superb results both on newly French polished and quick turn around items will now stick with Gilboys its the best I have used.

I loved the finish, but I think I did something wrong

I think I must not have done something right, because a glass of water was put on the table afterwards and it marked. Does this mean I need to use another coat or two of hard wax oil to seal it? Love the products, and I know the reason for the problem is what I have done not the products.

All I hoped for

The hours I spent researching online, trying to find a good furniture wax for my antique furniture. When I found this inexpensive but lovely hutch, I realized that the finish was flaking off, especially on the front. I needed a finish that could "restore" the tired out finish and also be good for my other furniture. The research took days, and I was frustrated that there were so many options but none seemed good. Until I came across Gilboys, It was everything I wanted--easy for a fairly inexperienced DIYer, not toxic, no chemical clean-up needed, not messy, quick drying. The YouTube video where Simon compared all the different options for finishes was just what I needed to help me know that the beeswax furniture polishing kit was the way to go. I did two rounds, on two days, and LOVE the results. I love the finished color, the texture, the gloss--everything.

I enjoyed this product so much I'll be purchasing it for my parents and husband's parents for Christmas, since they have many wooden antiques too!

And the thing that made the order truly special was how carefully and thoughtfully it was packaged. Gilboy's is now the only place I'll come when I need to refinish something. It is SO RARE nowadays to find quality in ANY product; these things are such good quality they are a pleasure to use. Clearly I'm a fan. And my hutch has new life--it's almost glowing! : )

First time purchase

Excellent product and has encouraged me to make attempts to restore more furniture. It gave a lovely sheen to some old oak tables that were a commission piece. Will definitely buy again.
